Not sure when the door hooks entered production on 11 and 12 Pattern but it sure does improve the air circulation in the cab running with the doors on the hook.


I've tried driving my Pat 12 with the doors held open on the hooks vs driving with the doors removed, with no top. I think the doors actually get more air on the driver and co-driver than with no door at all. Driving with the door off completely at 30 MPH is just scary even with seat belt.


Tried driving Pat 12 with side panels of the the nose removed and the doors on the hook and it felt like it was scooping the hot air from the engine into the cab. Same feeling driving without hood and the windshield open.
